Does 'win the debate' mean anything ? If so, what? Does using a sports

metaphor help or hinder our understanding of last night's debate?

I would argue that 'winning a debate' means little in this context, but I'm open to hearing other people's opinions. Was anyone's mind changed by what he or she heard last night? And, if so, how would you quantify it so as to declare a 'winner'?
